In conjunction with the launch of WGXC's new sound and new program schedule in 2019, Wave Farm announced an open call for a Station Soundmark[1]. This brief station sonic identification--an audio earworm--will air with intense frequency on Wave Farm's WGXC 90.7-FM and online radio stream. The Open Call received 23 submissions, which are featured here in a program produced by Becca Van K. Featured artists include: Erin Demastes, David Nadeau, Matthew Cullen, Edward Ruchalski, Paolo Pastorino, Timo Kahlen, Scott Kellerhouse and Justin Calder, David Snow, Matt Harle, Kamau Patton, David Garland, Hayden Wright, James Sheehan, and Jimmy Garver.
[1] Soundmark: This is derived from the term landmark. A soundmark is a sound which is unique to an area. In his 1977 book, "The Soundscape: Our Sonic Environment and the Tuning of the World," R. Murray Schafer wrote, "Once a Soundmark has been identified, it deserves to be protected, for soundmarks make the acoustic life of a community unique." p. 10. ISBN 978-089281455-8.
